The Socialist Party of North Carolina exists to promote the
evolution of our society into one in which democracy is
pervasive.

Democracy should not only be present every two years at the
ballot box, but also at the place of our employment, education,
and at the throttle of production. It is only by complete
democracy that we all can be free.

One moral obligation of democracy is to protect the freedoms
and rights of the powerless from the powerful. To that end, the
civil liberties and rights of all people, regardless of gender, race,
sexual orientation, age, or disability, must be protected.

It is our obligation, as equal members of this earth, to work
toward and bring about socialism in our time. Either working
alone or working with other progressive organizations, we shall
obtain justice for all. Yes, we ARE our brothers and sisters’
keepers. We are all one together, inseparable, determined.

Universal health care, the right to collective bargaining, public
ownership of common-use utilities, promotion of ecologically
friendly technologies, the end of the barbaric death penalty,
quality public education for ALL, these are our goals, and the
birthright of all humanity.
